But I can't see any reason bar the EFL changing the 'terms' of our embargo again for us not to sign 4 players. After all we asked for and got permission to ignore the Chorley game, 'exceptional circumstances'. Why bother if we had no intention of signing anyone? I've seen suggestions it's because we might be being taken over, but why would that stop 'day to day' runnings? Plus there's been no sniff of that, previously we've at least heard about the EFL's fit and proper stuff.

Then the club should just come out and say so, stop all the conspiracy theory nonsense, lack of trust and build back relationships with the fans.

Elwood P Dowd Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I’m not too worried about the short term or even the spectre of relegation to League 1, what does worry me is the threat to the very existence of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JfR Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I was reading up about the Reading situation, seeing as they're also in a position of being restricted this transfer window, to see if it could give some possible insight into our position. From the noises coming from their camp, they're making it clear that the EFL haven't made them aware as to what the exact restrictions that they are under are. They know they'll have some sorts of restrictions this year, but what they can or can't do hasn't been explicitly laid out to them. As such, they're not able to do anything at all until the EFL make that clear to them. I do wonder if we're in a similar position of not knowing exactly what restrictions apply to us. As Nixon says, the EFL decides on what restrictions are put in place, and he seems to suggest that the EFL have been changing or fine tuning the restrictions we are/will be under. Might it be the case that they haven't told us exactly what we can and can't do, and as such we can't move on transfers? As others have said, the fact that non-contract players, some with other offers from elsewhere, are sticking around might suggest that there must be some sort of belief that something will happen at some point, and Rooney himself did say after the Man Utd game that he believes something will happen, he just needs it to happen sooner. Perhaps the worry is less that we won't have anyone signed over the whole season, and more that the EFL are taking so long to make a decision on a course of action for Derby, that we're worried that they won't sort it out before the season starts, which would make the first few games of the season almost impossible to compete in.

Something is stopping us signing 4 players and I guess it must be wages - maybe EFL have given us a low wage cap? Could be as simple as agents wanting a pay day? And we are banned from that?

Has anyone noticed in all his recent interviews, full of cliches and rhetoric that he is unable to look the interviewer in the eye, or look at the camera when he is giving his redundant answers?

A body language sign of deceit. Maybe or maybe just a person not necessarily that comfortable speaking in front of the camera. Also, don’t most managers speak in cliches? That’s why I rarely watch them speak and, apart from an update on injuries, find pre-match press conferences a total waste of time. Rooney may not be a good manager (maybe he’ll turn out to prove us wrong) but I think you’re on dangerous ground with what you seem to be implying.
